In 2017 Sem & Stènn introduced themselves in the Italian X Factor with The Fair, an overwhelming dark wave song and self-produced tribute to the world of clubbing. After their premature departure from the show, they were on the cover of Pride Italia and released their first LP OFFBEAT. Between deconstructing gender stereotypes, winning awards for spreading diversity and lgbt+ values in Italian society, plus paying tribute to the pop culture of the 1990s, Sem & Stènn enjoy breaking the rules with the sound at maximum volume.
